1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The clinical manifestations of dementia are often rapidly matched to a specific clinical syndrome, but the underlying neuropathology is not always obvious. A genetic factor often plays an important role in early onset dementia, but there are cases in which the phenotype has a different genetic basis than is assumed. Two patients, at different times, presented to the Memory Clinic because of memory problems and difficulty in performing daily activities and work. Neither caregiver complained of marked behavioural or personality changes, except for apathy. Patients underwent standard dementia evaluation procedures including clinical symptoms, family history, neuroimaging, neuropsychological evaluation, and genetic analysis of selected genes. Based on specific clinical phenotypes and genetic analysis of selected genes, both patients were diagnosed with frontal variant of Alzheimer's disease. The presence of a rare polymorphism in
